This research will address ARC Research Priority Area 2: promoting the health and wellbeing of mothers, and also supporting mothers? abilities to give their children a healthy start to life. We will assess the response of Australian women to body changes during pregnancy and the postpartum in order to determine whether findings overseas are applicable and can be enhanced in Australian women.

The proposed comprehensive empirical investigation will contribute new foundational knowledge relevant to preventative healthcare in Australia, an area of national research priority. Genetic technology promises significant preventative health economy benefits to Australia. Knowledge from this study will potentially benefit male and female users of healthcare services involving genetics, by elucidating their perspectives and needs. It will potentially benefit policy-makers and service providers in clinical genetic and other services involving genetics and inform future service models. It will contribute to future strategic research directions and the training,at PhD level, of a future researcher in a priority health area. Read moreRead less
